Among the boards final recommendations was organizing an air warning program with multiple air warning groups each composed of four air warning squadrons (AWS) and one air warning squadron (air transportable) (AWS(AT)). On 15 May 1943, the 1026: 1152: 439:. On the return trip to Hawaii squadron personnel were tasked with guarding Japanese prisoners of war. The squadron arrived back in Hawaii on 10 August and returned to MCAS Ewa to conduct maintenance on equipment and continue training. Following the revision of the air warning program, AAWS-5 was decommissioned on 10 November 1944. To date, no other Marine Corps squadron has carried the lineage and honors of AAWS-5 to include 1205: 1142: 1089: 1069: 2138: 1432: 1016: 1132: 1185: 1122: 501: 1036: 1195: 480: 1175: 1099: 142:. These squadrons were supposed to be fielded lightweight radars and control center gear in order to operate for a limited duration at the beginning of any operation until larger air warning squadrons came ashore. Four of these squadrons were commissioned during the war with one, AWS(AT)-5, taking part in the 638:. Because the Marine Corps was unable to procure lightweight radar equipment the squadron fielded its first SCR-527 in August 1944. On 30 October 1944 the squadron returned to MCAD Miramar. MAAWS-20 was decommissioned on 10 November 1944 and its personnel were reassigned to other air warning squadrons. 216:

the air warning program in the Marine Corps was reorganized. It was determined that organizing the larger Air Warning Squadrons into an Assault Echelon and Main Body echelon was a more efficient means of quickly providing a complete air warning/fighter direction network during amphibious assaults.

AWS(AT)-5 was the first air transportable squadron commissioned in the Marine Corps on 1 December 1943. The equipment and personnel required for AWS(AT)-5 was still in flux as the squadron was standing up and beginning to train. The largest technical problem affecting these new squadrons was that

The primary mission of the air transportable squadrons was to provide early warning of enemy air attack during the early phases of an amphibious assault. Their secondary mission was to control friendly aircraft in those cases where control shipboard control was unavailable. The air transportable

It is considered necessary that one air warning organization under a single control perform the functions of air warning and fighter direction at an objective, from assault through consolidation phases. This assures continuity of effort and maximum effectiveness of control.
2163: 146:. All four squadrons were decommissioned on 10 November 1944 because the Marine Corps was unable to field the required mobile radars. The "first in" capability that the Assault Air Warning Squadrons were supposed to provide was transferred to the 1566: 1531: 561:. With the addition of the SCR-527 to the table of organization the squadron was no longer air transportable thus on 1 August 1944 it was re-designated as Air Assault Warning Squadron 10. On 24 October the squadron was moved to 1536: 1866: 1398: 258:
As a result of this reorganization the Marine Corps approved the decommissioning of the Assault Air Warning Squadrons on 1 November 1944. Accordingly, all four squadrons wee decommissioned on 10 November 1944.
